The Steal by C.W. Gortner
4.0
This is such a fun 1957 caper. The book is set in Cannes with a backdrop of all the most glamorous actresses in Hollywood from Elizabeth Taylor to Audrey Hepburn.
As the head jewelry designer at her family's company, Ania is a strong woman, far ahead of her time. Jerome is the insurance investigator assigned to the case when millions in jewels are stolen.
I loved the dual first person perspectives from Jerome and Ania. The tone of this was great, an extremely fast and engrossing read. The story ends with just enough of a conclusion while leaving excitement for the next installment.
Thank you to Blue Box Press and NetGalley for the advanced reader copy of this book. These opinions are my own.
